So...you've had this cab-only trouble before.... Yep, you'll need the registry portion too and I don't do artzy, so I have no clue where to point ya...Try to search the registry for one of the "unique names" from your dialer, then export that key with CeRegEditor. Use Notepad and copy the entries from your exported file into the RGU file of the OEM.... Maybee dharvey can help ya with the key location....

I am using the ppckitchen and the new 19588 base. I am not prompted for any overwriting accept for the dialer and themes. I was not prompted to delete anything else. Maybe just a glitch but has happenned in several builds using the same base. Not really a big deal all I have to do is cycle through the keyboard in order to bring it back. Just weird thats all. Just thought I would ask....

edit: Buildos (or any kitchen) looks for the GUID in an OEM in three places. The *.dsm & *.rgu file on a build, and the option.xml when opening Buildos. But buildos doesn't like it when you borrow a GUID identifier and it finds it twice...

I tried my idea exactly to your directions an there was a default hv and som other hv error it just wouldn't let me finish building

Make sure you have 2 blank lines at the bottom of the RGU file...

OK, let's create a down-n-dirty franken-oem...

Extract that green-dialer OEM out of the ppcgeeks_oem.rar to your USER_OEM directory and make the following changes to the OEM:

1. change the GUID's
2. Edit the name of the OEM
3. Copy your png files into the new OEM

Here's how:
1. There are 3 places the kitchen needs the GUID. The option.xml, the DSM and the RGU. I don't have my laptop so bear with me...Say the RGU & DSM are named:
813fd1d1-ca6e-4bcd-96d2-c97fb99bd535.??? What you want to do is rename the RGU and DSM to:
813fd1d1-ffff-4bcd-96d2-c97fb99bd535.???

See how the 9th - 12th hex numbers changed? Also edit your option.xml with notepad.exe and change the same 4 hexcharacters there. While in your option.xml file, change the name of your OEM to what you want.

2. Don't forget to change the directory name of your OEM so you know it's yours. I keep it close to what you changed the name to in the .xml file.

3. Now copy ONLY the png files from your dialer OEM i created and overwrite the existing ones.

Now you have successfully created a franken_oem! And it should cook up lovely. If you have troubles let me know and I can get to it.
